Steve Hackett has announced a 2027 North American leg of his Best of Genesis & Solo Gems show. The run begins April 10 at Atlanta’s Center Stage Theater and travels through the East Coast, Midwest and Canada before ending May 6 at Québec’s Palais Montcalm.
Hackett says the set will balance major Genesis favorites with solo material. The schedule includes Washington, New York, Boston, Toronto, Ottawa and Montréal, with presales starting October 14 and the general on-sale following on October 16.
Why it matters
The tour gives North American audiences a concentrated overview of Hackett’s Genesis and solo work rather than a single-album program. Its compact 17-date routing makes the announcement especially useful for fans planning travel.
